for anyone curious when i was talking to ackis about pricing he informed his is based around a 10 cpu which seems fair when you add factory time etc

Thanks Tardyn. The program looks great (you told me about it while I was pvping LOL).

I was mistaken with my pricing LOL... it's actually based off of 7.5 cpu (blushes).

Just those who are curious, my pricing formula is this:7.5 * resources + 27.5 * named resources + 300 * required number of sub-components + 500 * number of required factory components + 1000 * tech level + x where X is an integer (to account for sales, or for BLL's which like to critical fail on me).

What language are you writing this in Tardyn?

droid frames are in there.

BLL=115000
BLLAdv=14500

DZ-70Adv=4500
LE-Repair=7500
LE-RepairAdv=13000

R2=20700
R2Adv=24000
R3=30000
R3Adv=45000
R4=6000
R4Adv=8000
R5=4500
R5Adv=6000
Surgical=14000
SurgicalAdv=20000
Treadwell=4000
TreadwellAdv=5000

as you can see you can set a base price for a "naked" or bare droid with no modules nothin so it would be considered the frame.

if you were lookin for a price to sell frames as house decorations just pick the frame and hit total

I have one bug and one wishlist item.

Bug: when I pull up the Droid Repair module, the price an quantity appear in the Personality module fields and not the Droid Repair module fields.

Also, it would be nice to be able to save configurations and recall them later. In my DE practice, while I will build a wide variety of things, I have a number of standard configurations which tend to be most popular. It would be nice to be able to save and recall configurations thereby eliminating several settings steps. Also, when you want to take a saved config and then change one or two things, it's still less work than filling out the whole list again.

But that's just a DE being lazy. Nice tool. Most pleased.
